Rate the Silver Snakes run - Day 12: The Codebook of Mata Hari

[The Red Jaguars]

Great Seal finishes with a 7.80! 

Next up is "The Secret Battle Plan of Nathan Hale".   

Episode: "The Secret Battle Plan of Nathan Hale"
Artifact Location: Shrine of the Silver Monkey
Players: James and Christina
Pendants: 1.5
Outcome: Triple capture

[The Red Jaguars]

I gave Nathan Hale a 2. This was one of the worst triple captures on the show, and it should've never happened at all. The half-pendant was in plain sight and both Kirk and James signaled to it, but Christina still missed out. The Missing Eye team has an excuse for their triple capture, but not the Nathan Hale team. The only reason I didn't give this a 1 because the Silver Snakes had crappier runs like Snow Cone and Golden Cricket Cage.

Also gave it a 2. Terrible run.

[AimYourBrent]

Definitely a not solid 2.

[The Red Jaguars]

Nathan Hale finishes with a lowly 2. 

Next up is... Robin Hood and Marian's Ladder.                       

Episode: "               "
Artifact Location: Shrine of the Silver Monkey
Players: Jeremy and Erika
Pendants: 2
Outcome: Win!

[The Red Jaguars]

I gave            a 3. This temple run is so annoying and Jeremy is just so cringeworthy to watch in the temple. How does a team finish with only 30 seconds after entering five rooms that had no objectives? Erika did pretty good in her short time, but Jeremy was clueless and sucked. I don't care if this is a win, I can't stand this temple run and Jeremy. His victory dance at the end has to be one of the biggest cringeworthy moments on the show.  Seriously Jeremy, take that Silk Ladder and shove it up your ass.              

[Purple Parrots Fan]

I gave it a 4. Easily the most undeserved win on the show. Erika and her fatty partner Jeremy can shove the silk ladder up their ass indeed.

[The Red Jaguars]

I agree, Jeremy is a player that gets almost no criticism but he was a lost cause in the temple. He looked lost in every room and moved so slow. He even slows down in the end when he brings the Silk Ladder across the gate. I guarantee if Jeremy and Erika had a layout like Davy Crockett, they would've lost because Jeremy was so slow. No more hiding behind your win Jeremy, I am going to give you the criticism you have coming for you.

[Purple Parrots Fan]

Wait, Jeremy never gets criticism? He's like, the most universally hated temple victor ever. It's Erika nobody ever criticizes. You're right though, Jeremy DOES deserve criticism. They both do. And they would totally bomb at a layout like Davy Crockett. Could you imagine this team in a Season 2 or 3 temple? I shudder just thinking about it.

[AimYourBrent]

Ugh. This run.

I wanted to give it a 3, but I gave it a 4. A win deserves something, right? I guess.

[Purple Parrots Fan]

The only reason I didn't rate it lower than 4 was because it at least Erika was fast. And she knew somewhat what she was doing. But what drags it waaaaay down for me was her fatty partner Jeremy and his cluelessness. And this was just a lame win and episode in general. Like I said above, no way would this team had won if they had a harder layout.

[The Red Jaguars]

I really don't have a problem with Erika. She made it through 5 rooms in under a minute, which is actually better than most Season 1 front runners. I just can't stand Jeremy and his fat ass celebrating as if his win is groundbreaking. Silk Ladder finishes with an even 5.00.           

Next up is "The War Fan of the 47 Ronin". 

Episode: "The War Fan of the 47 Ronin"
Artifact Location: Quicksand Bog
Players: Jeremy and Elise
Pendants: 1
Outcome: Out of Time

[The Red Jaguars]

I gave War Fan a 7. I know this score might be a little high, but I am showing Jeremy and Elise some sympathy. These two got screwed BIG time in the temple. I mean they actually had a legit chance at winning, but a production error that cost them 30 seconds really screwed them over. Despite what outer space thinks, Jeremy and Elise were not an undeserving team and lost because of something outside of their control. And their temple performance was pretty good too and Jeremy made decent progress as a front runner. Too bad the team never got a real second chance, but at least they got the second prize. 

[Purple Parrots Fan]

Honestly, I'm giving this run a 4. Production error aside, they were absolutely nothing remarkable whatsoever. The temple run was extremely boring, and not memorable at all. And Elise has got to be the slowest second runner ever. Seriously, she just WALKED through every single room. The production error sucked yes, but rating it a 7 is way too high and generous. I actually kind of hate this run in a way.

Sorry, but I really don't like this run at all. It wasn't their fault the production error happened, but this team was slow, boring, and NOTHING special at all. I know my grade is a little harsh, but I refuse to overrate this run. Don't like. Sorry.

[The Red Jaguars]

Interesting, I feel the opposite about this run. Jeremy did a pretty good job in handling most of his rooms in the temple and got removed with a 1:08 left after entering 7 rooms. I forgot that Elise was pretty slow though, but she still made it to the Room of the Secret Password despite losing a lot of her time. I might lower the score to a 6 though because a 7 is way too generous. You're right about it being a little boring and unremarkable. But I don't mind this run at all.
